<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">P.H.Fat is a Capetonian rap group made up of Smooth Mike (the voice) and Narch (the beats). Together, they make electro rap tracks that are best played loud. They’re the guys who do things a little differently; they don’t have a record label and they give their music away for free. If you’ve ever seen one of their explosive live shows, you’ll understand why they have over 26 000 Facebook fans and a crowd banging down the doors to get in.<u></u><u></u></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">The Kiffness' deep, infectious sound was pioneered by passionate sound engineer Dave Scott, who was later joined by his musical partner, Black Norris, a.k.a Mvelo Shandu, who plays bass and drums in the band. The duo's relationship was harnessed from endless hours of singing in the chapel and playing jazz together at Michaelhouse High School. This unique, melodic electronica will have you hypnotised. Watch out for their instrumental talent and uninhibited dance moves - you won't regret it. </span><u></u><u></u></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; color: #222222; margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The Plastics are a quirky, retro rock band that likes to make their friends dress up in gorilla costumes. They make melodic, disco-flavoured rock, peppered with a lot of lyrical genius. In 2008 they released their first EP, <i>The Plastics</i>, followed closely by another one called <i>Kiss The Plastics</i> (2009). Both were distributed for free - because they're nice like that. Since then, the band has been dishing out hit after successful hit. Their live shows bring with them heaps of infectious energy, fuelled with elation. <u></u><u></u></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial;">Bye Beneco is raw, organic and dreamy, with an underlying gypsy-folk, blues spirit.

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Far Too Loud, a.k.a. Oli
Cash, has gained a reputation for hi-tech, dancefloor-destroying music that
makes people throw their hands in the air and go crazy. Think high-energy,
aggressive funk, big basslines, crazy edits, intricate production and you’ll know
the sound. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

back in 2005, things have gone ever upward. Winning “Best Single” at the
Breakspoll Awards in 2007 was a huge boost early on and later that year the
huge FTL anthem “Play It Loud”, which saw a move from breakbeat into big, dirty
electro-house grooves, received a massive response and remains a firm
crowd-pleaser to this day. Subsequent chart-smashers including “Bring Back
Boogie” and “Megaloud”, and remixes for the likes of Lily Allen and The Crystal
Method confirmed Far Too Loud's place among the big guns of electro-house. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">2012 saw Far Too Loud grow even more, with numerous Beatport top ten
chart positions, remixes for artists such as Excision and Cyberpunkers and the
release of his multi-genre Firestorm EP, which shook up the whole bass music
scene.  2013 looks to be even bigger, as the “Faster Than Light” EP drops on June 3<sup>rd</sup>,
featuring four brand new tracks bursting with his explosive trademark
production and energy. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="mso-pagination: none; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Having
toured the world over, Oli is well experienced in delivering unique sets packed
with high energy, whether it’s 200 people in a sweaty underground club or
20,000 at an outdoor festival, you can be sure it’s going to go off!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
